...developing a second string line which is in many respects the equal of his first string, and just what the final make-up of the latter will be is very uncertain. Wiser, Cornell, Pumpelly and Markle are back in the game after being on the injured list. Captain Ketcham will probably resume his place at centre owing to injuries to Marting who has been playing there lately. Stillman, Talbott and Pendleton are the most promising men for the tackle positions while Avery, Braum and Carter are running a close race for the ends. The position of quarterback seems...

Captain Ketcham has been playing at guard in offensive play and centre on the defence, changing with Marting, who has been showing exceptional speed...

At centre Marking has shown exceptional speed and it is thought that he will given a try-out there, with MacLeish, another good substitute, as an understudy. Captain Ketcham would in that case be shifted to end. In the backfield Wilson, quarterback of the 1916 freshman eleven, has distance both Wheeler and Gornish in competition for the quarterback position. The backfield has been further strengthened by Guernsey, a powerful line-plunger; Knowles, a promising drop and place-kicker...
